Lille vs PSG: Full lineups confirmed as Ferran Torres starts in Ligue 1 2026-27 match
Luis Enrique’s side opened their new season with a draw.
Lille were one of five teams in the French top division to win their first game last weekend, marking a solid start to Davide Ancelotti’s term as manager.
They are capable of winning their Ligue 1 home opener tonight for the fifth time in a row.
The hosts will have to deal with a number of notable absences. Due to a severe cruciate ligament tear, forward Hamza Igamane will be sidelined for an extended period of time, and defender Tanguy Nianzou is still not ready for selection.
PSG had a poor start to the Ligue 1 season, but to their credit, they persevered and managed to secure a point.
For the first time this season, Luis Enrique’s club managed to salvage a point in the top flight after drawing the opening game.
However, they cannot repeat a similar mistake going into this game, as they are facing one of the top sides of the league, who will be ready to pounce on their mistakes.
PSG have only scored once in the first half so far this season. Their defence has appeared fragile, and Enrique will have to fix it going into this game.
With three goals or more in six of those encounters, Les Parisiens can extend their competitive undefeated streak over Lille to 11 games on Friday.
